Which option do I choose for none or the apple supplied one?

Yeah? Where's the default Apple one?

just btw... some time ago i slipped on the ice, started falling, with an experienced gadgeteer reflex turned my oposite side of body to protect the iPod...

As i stood up and made a mental check list of thinks that could've got broken, i started walking down the road when IT happened... :(

It seems that the default case's clip can be easily detached from your pants / belt if you make a sudden lateral move... and that's exactly what happened while i was falling...

so when i started walking, the ipod slipped from my belt and started falling down... i swear the time dialated a bit at that moment...

i stretched out the leg closest to the ipod's fall "destination" in a desperate attempt to stop it... what i succeeded in was kicking it down the road for about 3-4 meters...

Luckily, the road was frozen so it slided off like a puck instead of tumbling...

after the second shock and a near heartattack, i picked the ipod, checked it and guess what - it survived but the edges (not vertices, but edge points) now have nasty dents in them...

(to my great relief, a few moments of disk scanning later turned up no bad sectors... seems that i had an incredible luck and the drive wasn't spinning when it hit the ground)

lesson: (buy a proper case) OR (tape your ipod's edges AND vertices) OR (carry it in your pocket)

PS: sorry for a lengthy post...
